- NCT04783701Recruiting
CT scan timing to check bypass grafts after heart attack
This study looks at whether a special CT heart scan (CT angiography) can show how well bypass grafts are working in people who had a CABG after an acute coronary syndrome. It compares people managed with two anti-platelet medicines versus one aspirin, aiming to understand how well grafts stay open and guide care.

Tests treatment in adults with acute heart symptoms and artery swelling
This trial studies how to treat people who recently had acute coronary symptoms (like a heart attack or unstable angina) and who also have enlarged or swollen coronary artery segments (coronary ectasia or true aneurysm). It may help by testing a specific approach for reducing risks related to these abnormal artery changes.

Jinan, ShandongAges 18–85 - NCT05865600Recruiting
PET/CT guided planning for treatment in chronic coronary disease
This trial uses a heart scan (PET/CT) to better estimate blood flow in people with long-term coronary artery disease. It aims to help doctors choose the best treatment strategy and decide who may need more invasive testing or procedures.
Herning, Central JutlandAges 18 years+ - NCT06058182Recruiting
Rna biomarkers for heart attack patients
This study looks at RNA markers in the blood of people having their first heart attack to see if they can predict recovery. If you are scheduled for a procedure to open blocked arteries, you may be able to join.
Milan, MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT06101862Recruiting
CT scan vs. angiogram for certain heart attacks
This trial compares two ways to look at heart arteries: a CT scan (noninvasive) versus a traditional angiogram (a tube put into an artery). The goal is to see which is better for people having a certain type of heart attack.
Copenhagen, HellerupAges Any age - NCT06162247Recruiting
Registry study for heart patients in intensive care
This study tracks patients with sudden heart problems admitted to a special heart intensive care unit. It helps doctors learn more about these conditions to improve future care.
NaplesAges 18 years+ - NCT06215989Recruiting
Low-dose colchicine for acute coronary syndrome
This trial tests whether a low dose of the anti-inflammatory drug colchicine can help people who have recently had a heart attack or unstable angina. It aims to see if colchicine reduces the risk of future heart problems.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06255678Recruiting
Angio-based check of heart artery treatment effect
This trial tests if special software can check the result of a balloon or stent procedure by looking at the X-ray movie of your heart arteries. It may help doctors decide if more treatment is needed.
WarsawAges 18 years+ - NCT06279663Recruiting
Comparing bypass surgery vs stenting for high-risk heart attacks
This study compares two common treatments (bypass surgery vs. stenting) for people having a high-risk heart attack that involves blockages in multiple arteries. It aims to find which approach leads to better long-term outcomes.
Novosibirsk, Novosibirsk OblAges 18 years+ - NCT06283888RecruitingPhase 4
Choosing a blood thinner based on your genes after complex heart treatment
This trial tests whether choosing a blood thinner based on your DNA can prevent more heart problems. If you've had a complex heart procedure, you may be able to get a medication that works best for your body.
Zunyi, GuizhouAges 18–80 - NCT06286878RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Dapagliflozin after a heart attack: recovery study
This trial tests whether a diabetes drug called dapagliflozin (also used for heart failure) can help people recover better after a recent heart attack. It's for adults who are already on standard blood thinners and have had a heart attack in the past week.
São Paulo, São PauloAges 18 years+ - NCT07032389RecruitingPhase 2
A single pill for heart attack recovery
This study tests a single pill that combines three heart medicines—aspirin, a blood thinner, and a statin—to see if it helps people who have had a heart attack or stent procedure. It aims to make it easier to take your daily heart medications.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06327984Recruiting
Sex hormones and inflammation in heart disease
This study looks at how sex hormones and inflammation affect chest pain and heart disease. It aims to improve care for people with coronary artery disease.

AI predicts heart attacks using white blood cells
This study tests whether an artificial intelligence tool can accurately predict a heart attack (acute coronary syndrome) by looking at the properties of your white blood cells. If successful, it could help doctors diagnose heart attacks faster from a simple blood sample.
Graz, Styria / SteiermarkAges 18 years+ - NCT06441942Recruiting
Women with heart attack or unstable angina study
This study is a registry that collects information about women who have had a heart attack or unstable angina. The goal is to learn more about how these conditions affect women and improve care for women with heart disease.

Indobufen vs aspirin after stent in older heart patients
This trial tests whether a blood thinner called indobufen works as well as aspirin for older people (65+) who have had a heart attack or unstable angina, received a drug-eluting stent, and are already taking two blood thinners. The goal is to find a safer or better option for long-term prevention.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for acute coronary syndrome?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 205 recruiting acute coronary syndrome studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a acute coronary syndrome trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a acute coronary syndrome trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
